I feel like I've had this argument for 10 years in this thread but the idea that the 6'6 franchise potential d-man #1 overall pick has less value than 220 other guys (gimmicks aside) is :confused:

Like if you're just drafting purely on 2021 results what's the point just come play in one of my fantasy leagues and get wrecked 3 time HHL champions #dynasty #swag

Well I certainly hope you're not suggesting your imaginary organization would try to dissuade a young man from finishing his college education

(but also it just makes it harder to argue viability/team composition etc. if we don't have real stats to pull from but I get your point)
but in the same sense that it doesn't really follow to pick Byfuglien or an obviously injured player and say for the sake of pretend they aren't injured, I think it's hard to extrapolate from junior players who don't make the jump for whatever reason

Drafting for just one year is just fantasy hockey, which most of us already play. This draft is about putting together the best possible team for the future imo (or some dumb gimmick team I guess). I'd never take the team I took if I had them for just one year. But 5-10 years? Hell yeah.

We'd never finish but I preferred when these drafts were 30 rounds for that reason, as in the salary cap era especially your prospect core is such a large part of the organization.

e: I mean win now teams are a thing too. I think they're much harder to do in this draft because people way overvalue veterans (although less and less each year).

This is another difficult pick, as there are a handful of forwards I would LOVE to add and all of them might be gone by the time I go up next, but it is also important to grab another defenseman while the pickings are fast slimming down.

While I plan on playing my Toews-McAvoy pairing around 26 minutes a night, I still want a defensive stalwart to help on the PK and to get tough minute assignments. Only 31 and still an elite defensive defenseman (and has been for as long as I can remember), the Devils are pleased to select Chris Tanev to anchor the second pair.

Thanks

It’s not often you get to pick a first line centre with the 231st pick!

Sure it’s the first line centre (once Eichel is traded) of a horrific team on a multi season tanking job, but he’s going to get a lot of opportunity to grow this season.

I presume that Kuule hain nussivan is skipped since mono picked at 6:45, so I'm going to go ahead and claim Plzeň, Czechia (sister city to Birmingham, Alabama)'s own Dominik Kubalík for the Toronto Maple Leafs, abandoning any further pretense of selecting good North American kids in favour of a dude from the beer capital of the world, on the basis that he has been on a 30-goal pace for both of the last two covid-shortened seasons.

This may not be the *best* fit but it has a whiff of comedic irony about it. Besides, the AAV is right on the money. I'm going to have to start paying a lot more attention to the cap from here on out, and after this pick I won't really need to think about forwards for a while. The Winnipeg Jets select Pius Suter.
